Government Schools?

Interesting article seriously proposing the abolition of public schools.

Americans want universal education, just as they want universally safe
food. But nobody believes that the government should run 90 percent of the
restaurants, farms, and supermarkets. Why should it run 90 percent of the
schools — particularly when it gets terrible results?

Indeed. Government schools are becoming a liability that burdens people much more than universal public education helps them.
